Cardinal Fitness is teaming up with The Salvation Army to help collect school supplies for Chicagoland students. Through August 10, 2009, members of the community are encouraged to help support this great cause by bringing new school supplies to any participating Cardinal Fitness location.

The Salvation Army will be disturbing the supplies to schools in the Chicagoland area.

Stop by any participating Cardinal Fitness location and ask a manager for details! For a list of participating locations, visit cardinalfitness.com.
